DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

Key Success Factors for Project Managers

• Know the expectations of your Program Manager/Project Sponsor. If you aren't sure, ask.

• Know the business rationale of the project. Why are we doing this project?

• What are the benefits to the client? Clearly define requirements and scope

• Focus on deliverables. Think about your project's deliverables from the viewpoint of the client. What would the client be willing to pay for?

• Recognize your project's relationships with other projects, and maintain communications with project managers of those teams.

• Be confident in your estimates. Ask others with estimating experience to review your workplan and estimates. Remember, tasks should be less than 80 hours.

Use Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and earned value to assess project performance and report status. Tell a "story" when reporting status.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

"If you are looking for great resources to save time with your business presentations, Flevy is truly a value-added resource. Flevy has done all the work for you and we will continue to utilize Flevy as a source to extract up-to-date information and data for our virtual and onsite presentations!"

– Debbi Saffo, President at The NiKhar Group

"One of the great discoveries that I have made for my business is the Flevy library of training materials.

As a Lean Transformation Expert, I am always making presentations to clients on a variety of topics: Training, Transformation, Total Productive Maintenance, Culture, Coaching, Tools, Leadership Behavior, etc. Flevy usually has just what I need to make my point.

It is well worth the money to purchase these presentations. Sure, I have the knowledge and information to make my point. It is another thing to create a presentation that captures what I want to say. Flevy has saved me countless hours of preparation time that is much better spent with implementation that will actually save money for my clients."

– Ed Kemmerling, Senior Lean Transformation Expert at PMG

– Chris McCann, Founder at Resilient.World

"As a young consulting firm, requests for input from clients vary and it's sometimes impossible to provide expert solutions across a broad spectrum of requirements. That was before I discovered Flevy.com.

Through subscription to this invaluable site of a plethora of topics that are key and crucial to consulting, I have been able to exceed expectations and deliver quality advice and solutions to my clients. The quality and expertise of the authors are exemplary and gives me great confidence to use as part of my service offerings.

I highly recommend this company for any consultant wanting to apply international best practice standards in their service offerings. "
